Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Anordnung nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The The invention relates to an arrangement according to the preamble of the claim 1.
Eine
solche Anordnung ist aus der
In der Praxis ist es jedoch von Nachteil, dass man auf diese Bebauungsmerkmale angewiesen ist. Insbesondere bei großen Lagerflächen werden diese Flächen mit zum Teil relativ hohen, transportierbaren Einheiten zugestellt. Dann ist die Sicht zu den Bebauungsmerkmalen nicht mehr gegeben und somit keine weitere Orientierung möglich.In In practice, however, it is a disadvantage that one on these building characteristics instructed. Especially with large storage areas These areas are sometimes relatively high, transportable units delivered. Then the view to the building features is no more given and thus no further orientation possible.
Der im Patentanspruch 1 angegebenen Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Hilfssystem der eingangs genannten Art aufzuzeigen, mit dem auch dann noch die Lage des Fahrzeugs bestimmt werden kann, wenn keine Lagebestimmung an den sonst bekannten künstlichen oder natürlichen, ortsgebundenen Merkmalen möglich ist. Diese Aufgabe wird durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale in Patentanspruch 1 gelöst.Of the The invention defined in claim 1 is based on the object to show an auxiliary system of the type mentioned, with the also then the location of the vehicle can be determined, if not Orientation to the otherwise known artificial or natural, localized features possible is. This object is achieved by the characterizing features in claim 1 solved.
Die mit der Erfindung erzielten Vorteile kommen dann zur Wirkung, wenn bspw. die dauerhaften Referenzmarken an den Wänden nicht mehr sichtbar sind bzw. der GPS-Empfang durch zu hoch gestapelte Container erschwert ist oder andere bekannte Lagebestimmungsverfahren durch Kopplung und/oder Peilung versagen. Nun wird das elektronische Lagerverwaltungssystem genutzt. Hier sind die Daten bzw. Belegzustände aller Stellplätze gespeichert. Dazu sollte das Fahrzeug zunächst eine ungefähre Angabe über seine Lage haben. Es ist in der Regel an einem bekannten Ort gestartet, an dem eine Peilung an bekannten, ortsgebundenen Merkmalen, z. B. Laserflektoren, möglich war. Auf einem weiteren Teil des Weges waren die Lasermarken dann nicht sichtbar, sodass das Fahrzeug dann mittels Kopplung weiter gefahren ist. Mit zunehmender Strecke wird jedoch die Koppelnavigation immer ungenauer. Wenn nun aber die bereits abgestellten Objekte, z. B. Europaletten oder Container, in ihrer Position bekannt sind, kann sich das Fahrzeug durch eine Erfassung der Objekte in der Umgebung und durch einen Vergleich mit der zu erwartenden Position in der Karte an den belegten Stellplätzen orientieren. Somit ist es möglich, weitere transportable Objekte relativ genau abzusetzen. Die auf der Hinfahrt ermittelten Werte durch Kopplung werden mit der relativen Lageerfassung an den Objekten verglichen und überprüft. Bei zu großen Abweichungen könnte auch ein Warnsignal gegeben werden, sodass weitere Maßnahmen durch einen Bediener eingeleitet werden. In der Regel ist die Zuverlässigkeit in der Lage erhöht worden. Die Daten sind genauer.The achieved with the invention benefits come into effect when For example, the permanent reference marks on the walls not are more visible or the GPS reception due to stacked too high Container is difficult or other known attitude determination method Fail by coupling and / or Bearing. Now that's going to be electronic Warehouse management system used. Here are the data or document states all pitches saved. This should be the vehicle First, an approximate indication of his Able to have. It's usually started in a known location where a bearing on known, localized features, eg. B. Laser reflectors, was possible. On another part of the way then the laser marks were not visible, so the vehicle then continued to drive by means of coupling. With increasing distance becomes However, the dead reckoning more and more inaccurate. But if that already parked objects, eg. B. Euro pallets or containers, in their Position are known, the vehicle can by capturing of the objects in the environment and by comparison with the too expected position in the map at the occupied parking spaces orientate. Thus it is possible to transport more Releasing objects relatively accurately. The determined on the way there Values by coupling with the relative position detection to the Objects compared and checked. Too big Deviations could also be given a warning signal so that further action is initiated by an operator become. As a rule, the reliability is capable been increased. The data is more accurate.
Wenn das Fahrzeug nach dem Absetzen des transportierten Objektes oder dem Aufnehmen des Objektes die Kopplung fortsetzt bis wieder eine genaue und absolute Lagebestimmung an feststehenden und künstlichen Marken möglich ist, können durch die nachträgliche Bewertung der fortgesetzten Kopplung auch Fehler der Kopplung systematischer oder spontaner Art entdeckt werden bzw. Kalibrierungen vorgenommen werden. Auch dieses hilft, die Qualität der Messungen zu verbessern.If the vehicle after discontinuation of the transported object or the coupling continues until the object is picked up again accurate and absolute orientation to fixed and artificial Trademarks may be possible through the subsequent Evaluation of continued coupling also errors of coupling more systematic or be discovered spontaneous type or calibrations are made. This also helps to improve the quality of the measurements.
Das Abstellen von Objekten ist, in der beschriebenen Weise, nur relativ genau, d. h. nur genau in Bezug auf die bereits abgestellten Objekte. Beim Wiederauffinden bzw. beim Aufnehmen von Objekten ist dieses kein Problem. Hier wird ohnehin eine Orientierung an dem aufzunehmenden Objekt notwendig. So müssen bspw. die Gabeln eines Gabelstaplers in die dafür vorgesehenen Nischen in den Paletten einfahren und am Container sind die Öffnungen für die Verriegelungsbolzen zu finden. Hierbei kann das Hilfssystem, wenn es genau genug ist, d. h. also auch ggf. im Nahbereich noch funktioniert, gute Dienste erweisen. Ansonsten muss ein erweitertes System die genaue Position von Objektkanten und Objektecken bzw. Aufnahmeöffnungen finden.The Stopping objects is, in the manner described, only relative exactly, d. H. only exactly in relation to the already parked objects. When retrieving or recording objects, this is no problem. Here, anyway, an orientation to be included in the Object necessary. For example, have the forks of a forklift drive into the designated niches in the pallets and on the container are the openings for the locking bolts to find. In this case, the auxiliary system, if it is accurate enough, d. H. So also possibly in the vicinity still works, good services prove. Otherwise, an extended system needs to know the exact location of object edges and object corners or receiving openings Find.
Es ist in organisierten Lagern üblich, dass die Lagerware, der Lagerbehälter – mit anderen Worten also das zu transportierende Objekt – auf bekannten, zum Teil auch markierten Stellplätzen, abgestellt wird. Beim Ein- bzw. Auslagern wird ein irgendwie geartetes Lagerverwaltungssystem angesprochen, d. h. der Belegzustand der Stellplätze ist bekannt. Die Stellplätze sind in einer Karte definiert. Somit kann das Fahrzeug seine vermutete Lage anhand der in der Karte verzeichneten belegten Stellplätze überprüfen.It is common in organized warehouses that the stock items, the storage container - in other words that Object to be transported - on known, partly also marked parking spaces, is parked. When entering or Outsourcing is addressed to any kind of warehouse management system, d. H. The document status of the parking spaces is known. The pitches are defined in a map. Thus, the vehicle can be its suspected Check the location according to the occupied parking spaces on the map.
Die durch bordeigene Sensoren erfassten Objekte in der Umgebung werden mit den in der Karte verzeichneten belegten Stellplätze in Übereinstimmung gebracht bzw. auf ihre Identität überprüft. Bei den Sensoren zur Erfassung der Objekte kann es sich z. B. um Radar, Laser, Kamera usw. handeln. Im Nahbereich ist auch Ultraschall möglich. Sensorkombinationen können allgemein die Qualität, insbesondere die Verfügbarkeit, und ggf. auch die Genauigkeit erhöhen.The Be detected by on-board sensors objects in the area with the occupied parking spaces on the map matched or checked for identity. The sensors for detecting the objects may, for. B. order Radar, laser, camera, etc. act. At close range is also ultrasound possible. Sensor combinations can be general the quality, in particular the availability, and possibly also increase the accuracy.
Nach Anspruch 2 ist es vorteilhaft, dass das Hilfssystem zur Unterstützung eines Fahrzeugfahrers dient. Ggf. ist es ausreichend, dass der Fahrer seinen ungefähren Startort eingibt bzw. sein ungefährer Standort irgendwie bekannt ist und eine genauere Lagebestimmung durch die Umgebungserfassung ermittelt wird. Dann kann während der Fahrt eine fortlaufende Verfolgung durch die Koppelnavigation durchgeführt werden. Während der Fahrt und/oder am Zielort kann wieder eine genauere Lagebestimmung durchgeführt werden, sodass der Fahrer auch sicher ist, dass er den richtigen Platz erreicht hat. Hierbei ist es in der Regel nur notwendig, dass eine Stellplatzgenauigkeit erreicht wird, denn der Fahrer wird in der Regel das Aufnehmen und Absetzen von den transportablen Objekten selbst durchführen.To Claim 2, it is advantageous that the auxiliary system to support a vehicle driver serves. Possibly. it is sufficient that the driver his enter approximate starting location or its approximate Location is somehow known and a more accurate orientation determined by the environmental detection. Then, while the ride a continuous pursuit of dead reckoning be performed. While driving and / or At the destination, a more accurate orientation can be performed again so that the driver is also sure he is the right one Has reached place. Here it is usually only necessary that a parking space accuracy is achieved because the driver is in usually the picking up and setting down of the transportable objects perform yourself.
Nach Anspruch 3 ist es von Vorteil während der Fahrt die Umgebung fortlaufend zu erfassen. Ggf. befindet sich an einem zentralen Standort ein Rechner mit dem Lagerverwaltungssystem. Die Daten vom Fahrzeug können per Funk übertragen werden und hier mit den Solldaten des Lagerverwaltungssystems verglichen werden.To Claim 3, it is advantageous while driving the environment to record continuously. Possibly. is located in a central location a computer with the warehouse management system. The data from the vehicle can be transmitted by radio and here with be compared to the target data of the warehouse management system.
Somit wird überprüft, ob die aktuellen Daten tatsächlich richtig sind. Wenn Fahrzeuge, die nicht mit dem Erfassungssystem ausgestattet sind, Objekte unerlaubt entnommen oder hinzugestellt haben, kann dieses somit festgestellt werden. Die in der Karte verzeichneten belegten oder unbelegten Stellplätze stimmen dann nicht mit den durch bordeigenen Sensoren erfassten Objekte in der Umgebung überein.Consequently it checks if the actual data is actually are correct. If vehicles that are not with the detection system equipped, objects taken without permission or added this can thus be determined. The listed in the map occupied or unoccupied parking spaces are then incorrect with the objects detected by on-board sensors in the environment.
Das Hilfssystem ist nicht nur für fahrerlose Fahrzeuge, sondern auch als Assistenzsystem für Fahrzeuge mit Fahrer bzw. zur Teilautomatisierung geeignet. Für den Fahrer ist es insbesondere auch dann von Vorteil, wenn er das Hilfssystem zur Zielführung für sein Fahrzeug verwendet. Die Umgebungserfassung kann ihn dann fortlaufend darüber informieren, wie weit es noch bis zu seinem Ziel ist bzw. ob er rechts oder links abbiegen muss. Möglicherweise liegt auch eine Gefahrenstelle vor ihm und er müsste die Geschwindigkeit reduzieren.The Auxiliary system is not only for driverless vehicles, but also as an assistance system for vehicles with driver or suitable for partial automation. It is for the driver in particular also advantageous if he the auxiliary system for Guidance used for his vehicle. The environmental detection can then keep him informed about how far it is still up to his goal or whether he turn right or left got to. There may also be a danger point him and he would have to reduce the speed.
Wenn er dann an seinem Zielort angekommen ist und es stehen hier bspw. mehrere transportable Objekte, dann kann ihm das Hilfssystem – nach Erfassung der Umgebung – mitteilen, welches der in diesem Bereich stehenden Objekte das gesuchte ist.If He then arrived at his destination and it is here, for example. several transportable objects, then it can the auxiliary system - after detection the environment - tell which one in this area standing objects is the searched.
Nach dem fünften Anspruch ist es auch möglich, dass das System für übereinandergestellte Objekte angewendet werden kann. Dieses ist bspw. dann von Vorteil, wenn alle Stellplätze in der unteren Ebene belegt sind, aber die oberen Ebenen nur teilweise belegt sind. Somit gibt es dann in den oberen Ebenen wieder Unterscheidungsmerkmale.To the fifth claim, it is also possible that the system is applied to superimposed objects can be. This is, for example, then advantageous if all pitches are occupied in the lower level, but the upper levels are only partial are occupied. Thus, there are again differentiation features in the upper levels.
Bessere Genauigkeiten erhält man nach Anspruch 6, wenn man die Daten der Umgebungserfassung aufbereitet. Nicht nur, aber besonders im Stillstand des Fahrzeugs, erhält man üblicherweise eine sehr große Datenmenge bei der Umgebungserfassung. Die einzelnen Messwerte weisen Fehler auf. Durch Bewertung auf Plausibilität, Wahrscheinlichkeit, größte Übereinstimmung usw. lässt sich die Umgebungserfassung soweit über der elektronischen Karte verschieben, bis sie am besten passt.better Accuracies are obtained according to claim 6, if the Data of environmental detection processed. Not only, but especially at standstill of the vehicle, you usually get a very large amount of data in the environment detection. The individual measured values have errors. By evaluation for plausibility, Probability, greatest agreement etc., the environment detection can be so far over move the electronic card until it fits best.
Auch ein anderes Fahrzeug ist eine in ihrer Position veränderbare Einheit und kann, wenn seine Position bekannt ist, zur Umgebungserfassung bzw. zur Lagebestimmung genutzt werden. Somit ist das andere Fahrzeug nicht unbedingt ein Hindernis, sondern sogar quasi eine mobile Referenz.Also another vehicle is a variable in position Unit and, if its position is known, can be used for environmental detection or used for determining the position. Thus, the other vehicle not necessarily an obstacle, but almost a mobile reference.
